If the dealer says your wheels are OK, live with them as long as you're willing, then buy a fresh wheel or pair, and move these slightly bend down to Plan B status for use in bad weather, or on bad roads, or as emergency back up wheels.
+2 on this one if the dealer says there fine more than likley there fine for a few thousand miles on this level of wheel. In The mean time rather than looking for just a rim keep an eye out for another set of wheels. Nice slightly worn similar wheelsets turn up on CL surprisingly often at fairly low prices in bigger markets. I got a nice set with cassette good tires and scewers for $120.
